Many of us have already booked rooms in the Lodge for the 1, 2 and 3 May.
Oh yeah! I did that to. They asked me if I was ‘with that big lot’ and I had to confess my guilt.
It was like being put on a register.
You're so lucky having all of us old timers to learn from. Just think of the multitude of mistakes and bad choices you'll never have to make for yourself.

Like buying a never ending stream of figures you’ll never use on an almost weekly basis?

So, just to be clear, the 10th anniversary Ayton is on the FIRST weekend in May, and NOT the BH weekend (as it was in all previous years)?

That's what we're trying to get confirmed. But it's the weekend and Peeler will be otherwise employed.

Peeler, you aren't going to accept Merkel's surrender that weekend are you?

I think the only sticking point might be hall availability. Otherwise won't matter to me. I was hoping to get in at the lodge next year but a well formed blastocyst is threatening to ruin every plan I had post late Feb 2020. We'll see.

Well spotted Buff, I hadn't realised. I would say let's keep it to the first weekend, Friday 1st May. People have already booked up & I think the hall will be busy on the VE weekend with some WW2 bash the Germans sort of knees up do.
If that's OK with you all?
